Some of the world’s leading operatic stars including Stuart Skelton, Christine Rice, Alan Opie, Ailish Tynan, Janis Kelly and Natalya Romaniw share the stage with exciting new talent.

The song section is accompanied by the renowned pianist Eugene Asti and colleagues; the orchestral section played by a collaborative Super Orchestra made up of players from top London orchestras, all coming together for one night only.

The first half will include solo songs by Schubert, Schumann, Strauss and Quilter, followed by the Super Orchestra accompanying Ailish Tynan and Christine Rice in the Evening Prayer from Humperdinck’s Hänsel und Gretel, an extract from Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde sung by Stuart Skelton and Lee Bisset, the Quartet from Rigoletto, and the full company singing the Sanctus from Fauré’s Requiem.

Part two will begin with a performance of I’ll Sing by award-winning composer Rebecca Dale, and will carry on via Mozart’s Così fan tutte, Le nozze di Figaro and Die Zauberflöte, to Puccini’s Tosca with Natalya Romaniw singing Vissi d’arte, and Keel Watson and Gweneth-Ann Rand in Bess, you is my woman now from Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess. The pick of today’s most promising young singers will perform Vaughan Williams’ Serenade to Music.

To ensure that the funds raised by the Grenfell Tower Benefit Concert reach those that are in most need, the concert organisers and Cadogan Hall, in consultation with London Emergencies Trust, have decided to distribute the funds equally between Rugby Portobello Trust (Charity No. 1100143) and Grief Encounter (Charity No. 1101277) which focus specifically on helping the affected families with rehabilitation and looking to the future.

An event not to be missed. Please note start time.
